RE: [Fwd: Special discount to AS/400 Experts Journal]

Got the shirt (see previous post.)

Read the magazine on the train coming to work this morning.  Looks to me
like semi-pro production values but the content was OK.  Reminds me of the
second tier Atari magazines I used to buy in the late 80's.

The Net.Data article probably should have been the first of a two parter.  I
know the hardest part of starting to work with Net.Data for me was the HTTP
server configuration.
